CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
The Institutionalization of Interfaith Mediation: A Workshop with Imam Muhammad Ashafa & Pastor James Wuye

In the 1990s, Imam Muhammad Ashafa and Pastor James Wuye led opposing religious militias in Northern Nigeria. “My hate for the Muslims then had no limits.” says Pastor Wuye, whose militia killed Imam Ashafa’s spiritual leader and two cousins. Ashafa spent three years planning revenge, until one day, a sermon on forgiveness changed his life. The two men later met, reconciled, and are now working together to address contemporary issues around religious and ethnic motivated conflicts that negatively affect co-existence, development and good governance, not only in Africa but also around the world. In the documentary The Imam and The Pastor, Imam Ashafa explains, “even though we differ in some theological issues, we will make the world a safer place.”
For nearly twenty years, the Interfaith Mediation Center (IMC), the organization they established in Nigeria, has been engaged in peace building, conflict resolution, and promoting inclusive governance. Using a faith-based approach for interventions, IMC is now a significant local and global player in the field of human rights and conflict resolution.
To honor their visit to Indonesia, a workshop on “The Institutionalization of Interfaith Mediation” will be held in Yogyakarta on August 28-30, 2017, organized by Center for the Study of Religion and Democracy (Pusat Studi Agama dan Demokrasi, PUSAD Paramadina), Maluku Interfaith Institute (Lembaga Antar-Iman Maluku, LAIM), MA Program in Religious and Cross-Cultural Studies (CRCS) and MA Program in Peace and Conflict Resolution (Magister Perdamaian dan Resolusi Konflik, MPRK), both at Gadjah Mada University, and supported by the Tannenbaum Foundation and Tifa Foundation.
The workshop will consist of:

  1. Participant group mapping of interfaith issues in Indonesia.
  2. Exploratory discussions with Imam Ashafa and Pastor James on the institutionalization of interfaith mediation.
  3. Designing peacebuilding roadmaps that are expected to be implemented by the participants in their communities.

The workshop will be held entirely in English. All workshop participants’ transportation and accommodation in Yogyakarta will be covered.
We encourage and welcome all applications from peacebuilding practitioners and academics across Indonesia who have worked for at least two years in the field. Around 25-30 applicants will be selected to participate in the workshop.

  1. Fill in the application form, which can be obtained from http://www.paramadina-pusad.or.id/event/workshop-pma

Have you ever been treated in a hospital with a di Have you ever been treated in a hospital with a different religious affiliation than what we believe in?

In an emergency, we often cannot choose where we will be treated. However, this "emergency" seems to be an entry point to get to know people who have different beliefs from us.

Berita kegagalan Indonesia menjadi tuan rumah Pial Berita kegagalan Indonesia menjadi tuan rumah Piala Dunia U-20 masih hangat di ruang media kita. Apa pun alasannya, "kekecewaan nasional" ini menunjukkan bahwa kultur sepak bola telah mengakar kuat di negeri ini. 

Di beberapa tempat di negara lain, sepak bola bukan sekadar mengakar sebagai kultur, melainkan sudah menghunjam menjadi kultus.

Pada tahun 2016 silam, Walt Disney Animation Studi Pada tahun 2016 silam, Walt Disney Animation Studios merilis "Zootopia", sebuah film animasi tentang peradaban hewan dan masalah kewargaan yang mereka alami. Di situ, hewan-hewan bertindak laiknya manusia bahkan memiliki sistem pemerintahan dan kewargaan yang tak kalah canggih. 

Tentu bukan peradaban utopis semacam itu yang dibayangkan oleh konsep kewargaan ekologis. Namun, keduanya punya persamaan: mengandaikan hewan, dan makhluk lain, sebagai bagian dari kesatuan warga negara; mengakui hak kewarganegaraan tidak sebatas manusia.

Simak tulisan menarik tentang kewargaan ekologis ini hanya di situs web crcs.
Religions and queer identities are often purported Religions and queer identities are often purportedly seen as antithetical to each other, impossible to reconcile, and harshly incompatible to be openly and mutually ‘holding hands’.

Yet in Indonesia, despite mainstream conservative attitude toward queer identities, queer-inclusive voices coming from faith leaders and queer activists are resisting and challenging the status quo.
